Egypt's Foreign Reserves Exceed $49 Billion for First Time in History
Taarek Refaat The Central Bank of Egypt announced that the country's foreign currency reserves rose to approximately $49.036 billion in July 2025, surpassing the $49 billion mark for the first time in Egypt's history. This increase comes after the reserves stood at around $48.7 billion at the end of June 2025, reflecting a rise of $336 million. Egypt's foreign reserves are composed of a basket of major global currencies, including the US dollar, the euro, the British pound, the Japanese yen, and the Chinese yuan. The composition and distribution of these reserves are adjusted based on exchange rates and the stability of these currencies in international markets, according to a plan set by the Central Bank of Egypt's officials. The primary function of Egypt's foreign currency reserves is to ensure the availability of essential goods, pay off external debt installments and interest, and manage economic crises, particularly during exceptional circumstances. This is especially important as the country continues to face challenges related to hard currency revenue from key sectors. Earlier, the Central Bank reported a slight increase in reserves for June 2025, which stood at $48.7 billion, compared to $48.526 billion at the end of May 2025, showing an increase of $174 million. Additionally, Egypt's net foreign assets in the banking sector, including both the central bank and commercial banks, grew by $231 million to reach $14.941 billion by the end of June 2025, compared to $14.71 billion at the end of May 2025. The Central Bank also revealed that net foreign assets in commercial banks increased by 1.1%, reaching their highest level in four years, totaling $4.88 billion by the end of June. The surplus in foreign assets held by the Central Bank itself also rose by 2.1%, reaching $10.1 billion (approximately EGP 499.6 billion) by the end of June 2025, compared to $9.88 billion (around EGP 492.3 billion) in May 2025. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Egypt and Pakistan Move Toward Deeper Defense and Security Partnership
H-Tayea Egypt and Pakistan appear to be paving the way toward a deeper, potentially strategic military alliance, as President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi met with General Sahir Shamshad Mirza, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of Pakistan, in Cairo on Wednesday. The high-level meeting focused on expanding military and security cooperation, amid shared interest in regional stability and the fight against extremism. The visit, framed as part of broader efforts to deepen bilateral strategic ties, comes at a time when both countries are exploring new military partnerships and defense industry collaborations. According to a statement from the Egyptian Presidency, General Mirza conveyed greetings from Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, while President Sisi praised the growing momentum in Egypt-Pakistan relations. The leaders reportedly discussed joint defense initiatives, counter-terrorism efforts, and regional cooperation mechanisms. Defense analyst Umair Aslan, speaking to Defense Arabia, highlighted the significant opportunity for Egypt to benefit from Pakistan's growing defense industry. Over the past two decades, Pakistan has emerged as a credible and cost-effective defense supplier, offering viable alternatives to traditional Western sources. According to Aslan, one of the most appealing options for Egypt could be the JF-17 Thunder multirole fighter, co-developed by Pakistan and China. The lightweight, versatile, and affordable aircraft could help modernize Egypt's air fleet without the heavy political strings or financial costs often associated with US or French jets. Despite its lower cost, the JF-17 boasts modern avionics, weapon systems, and air superiority capabilities, making it a practical choice for flexible air defense. In terms of ground forces, Aslan suggested that Pakistan's "Al-Khalid" and "Al-Zarrar" main battle tanks may also be of interest to Egypt. The Al-Khalid, equipped with Chinese and Pakistani technology, offers strong engine performance and advanced targeting systems. Meanwhile, the Zarrar is a low-cost modernization option for older tanks—something Egypt may explore, especially as it aims to enhance local manufacturing capabilities. While Pakistan's ballistic missile systems may not be Egypt's primary focus, anti-ship and conventional surface-to-surface missile systems developed by Pakistan could be valuable additions to Egypt's arsenal, particularly as Cairo looks to build a cost-effective and adaptable defense posture. What makes this evolving relationship noteworthy is that both countries appear willing to move beyond simple arms transactions. According to Aslan, the Sisi-Mirza meeting, along with other recent defense engagements, signals a clear intent to forge a deeper defense partnership that includes industrial collaboration, technical exchange, and joint military training. read more Analysis- Turkey Has 0 Regional Allies...
